Sediment head to Grand Canyon from Glen Canyon Dam
The Interior Department plans weekly releases from Glen Canyon Dam to push downstream sediment toward the Grand Canyon. September storms carried ample sand and silt into two Colorado River tributaries, offering beach-building material for distribution by high flows. The canyon lacks natural sediment transport since the dam’s creation, harming beaches and fish spawning grounds.

SeaWorld argues on legal ground over trainer safety ruling
SeaWorld contends that baring close contact between whales and trainers would force a fundamental shift in its business, likening the restriction to NASCAR speed limits or NFL tackling bans. The case traces to a 2010 tragedy when Tilikum, a 6-ton male, killed trainer Dawn Brancheau at SeaWorld Orlando, a whale that had been linked to two prior deaths.
